Audrey Hepburn – Born on This Day – May 4, 1929

She won an Oscar and a Golden Globe for her very first starring role, in Roman Holiday in 1953.

Elephant Pictures add Exotic Flair
Elephants are the most magnificent mammals to walk the face of the earth. They’ve inspired artists with their sheer majesty for generation after generation, from prehistoric times through the present. Our expanding collection of Elephant pictures contains a wide variety of pieces, with an extensive range of styles. The smallest artwork measures less than 12 x 12 inches and the most massive are as enormous as their subjects.

While our collection is light on cave paintings, you will find many of the selections rendered in the latest trend-setting styles. The first pair of our favorite large elephant pictures packs quite a punch. We’ll start with the wonderfully colorful pop art Elephant by Dean Russo. At a maximum size of 47 x 48 inches, it’s as big and bold as can be. John Banovich’s remarkable Power of One photograph (shown below), weighs in at 48 x 40 inches.
Nature Wall Art Styles: Earthy Chic, Lakehouse Life, and Glamping

When it comes to nature-infused artwork, we’re now living in an age of endless choices. Whether you opt for an Earthy Chic, Lakehouse Life, or Glamping style, the options are endless.

James Dean – Dream as if You’ll Live Forever. Live as if You’ll Die Today.
James Byron Dean was born on February 8th, 1931 in Marion, Indiana. Although Dean’s life spanned a mere twenty-four years, his impact on American culture is monumental. He left this world on September 30, 1955, when his Porsche Spyder collided with a Ford Tudor sedan in Cholame, California, roughly halfway between Los Angeles and San Francisco in a tragic car accident.
The FramedArt.com galleries contain many pieces of custom framed James Dean artwork, including movie posters, photographs, and tribute paintings.
